50 Best Vegan Restaurants near East Los Angeles

“I tried both the Burrito and the torta version and I tell you it was delicious. The beans were super creamy and flavorful, the avocado was fresh and the soyrizo was well seasoned. I also tried their hot cocoa and it was sweetened perfectly. Definitely a place to visit again.“

“Delicious vegan pan dulce! Super nice people too. I highly recommend Soy Concha!“

“First time trying food here for Breakfast. Was not disappointed. I had their breakfast burrito. It was not greasy, the ingredients were chopped finely and the burrito stayed in place. The sauces are delicious. The place itself is very welcoming and the staff was very kind. I will be back to try other dishes.“

“Been meaning to hit this place, but always pass them up. Glad I stopped by, they got some good eats here. Tried the Vamipro with bistec and potato. Nice and crispy hand made tortilla. Potatos were healthy cut pieces and soft. Also had the Guisado sampler and man they are not shy with the servings. I definitely recommend the sampler plate if you are wanting to try the different options of guisados. For this location early is better as they do sell out of items on the early side. They also have restaurant where you can get there goods as well.“

“Really great service the workers are very nice and the food came out very fast though I did pick up and ate there. I got the Vegas roll and it was delicious you guys should definitely come here! They give you wasabi and soy sauce and the rolls are very big. Definitely worth it and I’ll be coming here more😁“

“We tried this Thai restaurant for the first time, and our experience was amazing! The taste and quality of the food were excellent. Our favorite, the Tom Yum Soup, was absolutely delicious. We also tried the Spicy Basil Clams for the first time, and they were incredibly flavorful and mouthwatering. Overall, it’s a great restaurant if you enjoy authentic Thai food. We would definitely visit again!“

“Small parking available in the back. No wait to be seated. Did wait to be attended. Good variety in the menu. Cafe de olla. The horchata is different, not bad just different. Green salsa is very good. Tried the chilaquiles in mole. And the cochinita pibil. Both tasty. A bit pricey.“

“The food es excelente!! My first time buying there, definitely worth it!!“

“Went with my gf here to knock out another coffee list off our list. Iced coffee was 🔥 but the pupusas were meh
Had better and I’m salvadorean so I judge a little heavier. lol sorry
But the staff was super friendly and on it even though they looked short staff. But going back for sure.“

“Lovely people and food!!!“

“The pizza was to die for — we had the margarita pizza — thin crust and sauce delicious. We had the artichoke burrata appetizer which was delicious too. The area where the restaurant is located is very cool. Enjoyable all the way around.“

“While looking for a new place to have dinner with friends, I stumbled upon Girl & the Goat. They had great online reviews, so we decided to give it a try. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was fantastic, and the service was impeccable. The roasted oysters were so good that I even ordered a second helping.🥳🥳“

“The food was very tasty, will be back next time“

“What an unforgettable dinner! Everything was flawless—a perfect 10 out of 10! The food was absolutely delicious, the hostess was incredibly warm and welcoming, and our server provided impeccable service all night long. The restaurant has such a charming, elegant ambiance, and every single detail was spot on. I already can’t wait to come back—highly recommended!I have to give a special shoutout to the lamb. I’m usually not a fan of lamb, but this was the first time I've ever had it cooked so perfectly, and it completely changed my perspective. The side dishes were rich, the drinks were amazing, and every single dish we tried was bursting with flavor“

“After our Altadena house burned down, we relocated to Barker Block and absolutely love being so close to Manuela. We used to have a fire table like yours, so dining here always carries a sense of home. Last night we brought friends, and they said, ‘This makes it hard to go out to eat in Monrovia—our restaurants cut corners with cheap ingredients and fast turnover.’ What your chefs create is the opposite: dishes with not just incredible flavor but extraordinary texture and detail. Their expertise is off the charts, and I highly recommend.“

“One of the most amazing meals I’ve had.“

“So good!!! Amazing. Love the food. The bok choy pot stickers OOOF! The best. 💜💜💜👑👑👑🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽🕺🏽💞💞💞💝💝👨‍❤️‍👨🧡“

“Best bagel? (Hard to say
Really great bagel. YES! I think you won’t disappoint. It’s definitely on the pricier side. But, the staff is really nice. Especially the cashier! Made my day a bit ngl. 8.5/10 :”-)“

“Excellent deep dish style pizza.“

“I recommend Botanica to everyone. They use fresh hand picked ingredients and the food is delicous! Their cocktails and desserts are so yum. I picked up some chile oil and pickled local veggies for gifts for my friends! Chef Zarah and the staff are best. Will definitely be returning soon.“

“🐅🐅🐅🐅 yum yummy.. crying tiger so good“

“The best vegan baked goods around town! I had the cornbread, almond cookie (gluten free), chocolate chip (gluten free), and Armenian pizza with a mixed tea. So good!“

“The little plates are yummy. I love the pita bread that came with the hummus (Salatim plate). The other plates were good also. I loved the bread pudding (I think it's better than the best cake). What I like the most about Bacari, besides the beautiful ambiance, is the friendliest staff.“

“Villa's Tacos were amazing! and I'm not saying this just because of the hype of the Super Bowl. I'm saying this because I mean it. The tacos were just amazing to me. Not your regular everywhere tacos. These tacos were homemade recipes. I had the carne asada, pork with potato (puerco con papa) & beans with cactus (frijoles con nopal). It's a week later that I tried these tacos and I can't stop talking about them. My favorite was the beans with cactus. Soooo good. Also, the atmosphere was just so nice and lively. I truly enjoyed every minute of my visit here. Thank you Villa's Tacos, we will return.“

“The Californian (turkey, bacon, avocado, tomato, sprouts, gouda, mayo, dijon on 7-grain sourdough) and The Chicken Parm (breaded chicken, basil marinara, mozzarella, parmesan, garlic aioli on a baguette) are favorites. With restaurants closing, we were happy to see the restaurant busy on a late Saturday afternoon Updated from previous review on 2026-09-13“

“Such an enchanting restaurant. I went there for the second time taking my girlfriends . It was such a hit and WE all had an amazing time . The food, service and atmosphere all are superb . We all got together after a long time and the relaxed atmosphere gave us the opportunity to catch up and enjoy the food and the drinks !!!“

“5 rating Vegan Delicious Pizza!! Slices, full pies, caesar salad, garlic knots, all house-made ingredients. cashew-based cheese. loved it!! As of October 2022, opened for 8 mos.“

“THE CRUMB CAKE WAS THE MOST DELICIOUS, MOIST, MAGICAL, PERFECTION.

Everything they make here is made with love. And I always think I can’t be more impressed, but lo and behold, today they wowed me again.

I cannot say enough good things about this bakery/cafe/team of creative brilliant artists who make magic in the heart of Frogtown.

Walk, don’t run to Just What I Kneaded!“

“The atmosphere was fantastic, and the food was delicious. However, the service was disappointing. Our server was condescending and repeatedly interrupted our moment by crossing between us without a word. When I asked about drinks, she was short and even gave inaccurate descriptions. This is my second visit, and both times with the same server have left a sour taste. I hope the service improves because the food deserves better! This is my second visit, and both times with the same brunette server, whose attitude left a sour taste.“

“Such Wonderful atmosphere, food and coffee! 💖🎉🥳 They also have a super sweet display of gourmet treats!!! 🤩“

“I travel all over the country, eating at fantastic restaurants, and I was extremely happy with everything we received, including the iced tea. This restaurant is a must-visit when you're in L.A.! Kudos! Delicious 😋“

“Good food big portions. Fast service.“

“Just tried MIRATE Restaurant the food was amazing! Definitely worth checking out if you love great flavors.“

“Loved this place. We came in on a random Tuesday when the world cup happened to be on and they still accommodated us and went above and beyond to give us excellent service. The food and the drinks were also good. Overall great experience and we'll definitely be back.“

“Easy 5 stars. Genuinely some of the best sushi I’ve ever had. Everything was incredibly fresh, and I loved that the dishes weren’t overloaded with sauces or unnecessary toppings, the quality of the fish really spoke for itself.

The salmon was buttery and melted in your mouth, the eel was warm, rich and perfectly glazed, and even the cucumber salad was ridiculously good. And if you go, definitely try the fatty tuna, highly recommend it!

This is one of those places that makes it hard to enjoy average sushi afterward. 😂 Already looking forward to going back.“

“I really want to give it five stars and I may come again in the future. The food is great, to be honest, the pork shoulder and mushroom rice is enough.“

“Best food in town and sports merchandise“

“👍People are very warm and accommodating“

“I just tried Bridgetown Roti for the first time. I can immediately say Mom's Curry Chicken Roti did not disappoint. It was packed with flavor and incredibly juicy inside, with a nicely grilled exterior. For me, their Pineapple Habanero Sauce made it complete. Giving it that extra spicy kick I wanted. The pineapple perfectly toned down the habanero so that it wasn't too hot. Just flavorful.

I also tried their Oxtail & Peppers Patty. Definitely good, but not as much of a standout as the roti.

Lastly, I tried their Macaroni & Cheese Pie. This was somewhat disappointing. If I had to guess, perhaps it's not a popular seller. Mine tasted like it had been reheated numerous times and definitely didn't taste fresh like the rest of the food.

That roti though... Delicious.“

“Amazing food and atmosphere“

“I loved the vegan broth options! Glad we could find a place that has more vegan friendly broth and toppings! Our server Jeraldine was awesome and she took care of our complicated order due to our food allergies! We will be back again!“

“amazinggggggly delicious and healthy :)“

“Amazing Avocado roast poached egg Amazing staff manager follow up to make sure meal was perfect amazing ambiance great location natural light“

“whipped feta app was incredible, it's been almost a week and I'm still thinking about how good it was! the drinks were all memorable as well. was super busy when we went but worth the wait. can't wait to go back for dinner!“

“What a wonderful experience! The food is fresh, authentic, and full of flavor. You can really appreciate the quality of the ingredients and the attention to tradition. The staff is kind, welcoming, and happy to explain the menu if it’s your first visit. It’s refreshing to find a place that stays true to Armenian culinary heritage while providing such excellent customer service. I will definitely be coming back!“

“Very delicious! My daughter fell in love with Katsu Sando ❤“

“This place has great Sichuan food! It has so many varieties of food to try and are all very good! We got the chongqing cold noodles that were very flavorful and numby! The favorite was the mapotofu that had very soft silky tofu with minced pork and a sauce you can smother rice with. We also got the local flavor lamb that had tons of veggies along with the soft tender lamb meat. The sweet and sour pork was crispy and delicious and the sliced potatoes with vinegar was very refreshing and had a nice soft crunch to it.

The staff were very nice and attentive and the place is very very popular and busy. The atmosphere is just like any mom n pop Chinese restaurant.

I've been here in the past and have enjoyed other dishes like the twice cooked pork, various dumplings, wonton in chili oil, dan dan noodles, cumin lamb/mutton & sliced beef & ox offal! The portions are always huge and sharable and great value!“

“Great friendly service and food.“
